Overview

Founded in 1365, the University of Vienna is the oldest university in the German-speaking world and one of the largest in Europe. Austrian public universities charge non-EU students a single, low statutory fee rather than programme-by-programme international rates, which makes Vienna one of the cheapest major Western European capitals to study in.

The official fee page doesn't say which academic year its figures apply to — confirm before budgeting. Students with citizenship of a designated developing country have the tuition fee remitted entirely and pay only the union fee (see the list on the same page). Most bachelor's programmes are taught in German, so the English-taught options are mainly at master's level.
